11 30 32 Valve Plate for Mercedes-Benz Trucks

What does a compressor valve plate do?

This compressor valve plate is a critical component within the pneumatic brake compressor system, responsible for managing air flow direction and pressure regulation. Manufactured from high-strength components, it ensures reliable performance under the intense thermal and mechanical stresses typical of heavy commercial vehicle operation.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This part is specifically fitted to Mercedes-Benz CITARO (O 530) variants including the Citaro G, GN3, N, MUE, and LÜ models, as well as the Mercedes-Benz CAPACITY. It is also compatible with Setra Series 400 models like the MultiClass S 415 UL, NF, and S 416 NF. These components are designed to work seamlessly within WABCO systems.

Installation and maintenance

For a successful repair, technicians should verify the plate thickness and port layout against the removed unit. It is recommended to inspect the compressor housing and cylinder head during installation to ensure a proper seal. Proper maintenance of the valve assembly helps prevent air leaks and maintains consistent braking pressure.

Selection guidance

When selecting replacement parts, always consider the specific engine type, such as the OM 457 LA or OM 457 HLA, to ensure exact fitment within the compressor assembly.
